* The V-class systems (mulder and scully), the N-class front-end (skinner), and Superdome systems (tis-sa-ack and nangas) are not covered by a support contract. Support for both software and hardware issues will be on a best-effort basis, with no turnaround guarantee. The only filesystem which is backed up is skinner's /home, accessible from the Superdome as /vhome. The systems have, for the most part, been problem-free and stable for many months. But it's probably wise to work on the assumption that they may disappear on very short (or possibly no) notice.
